Trimester Abroad Programs (Fall, Winter or Spring)

SPEND A TRIMESTER OVERSEAS.

Augustana has been a leader in faculty-led international experiences since the 1970's.

Trimester abroad programs include a variety of courses in different fields, allowing students to earn graduation requirements while studying with Augustana faculty abroad, local faculty or both. These programs are typically offered every three years and are open to Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. Most Trimester abroad programs in the Fall and Spring are for a 10-12 week stay, while Winter Trimester programs typically include 5 weeks of coursework on campus in November and December and 5-7 weeks overseas in January and February.

All Augustana Trimester Abroad Programs are Augie Choice eligible and all are considered Learning Communities.

Five Benefits of a Trimester Away Program

2. Because you are replacing a term on campus with a term abroad the overall cost can be lower than any other program type.

3. Trimester Away programs offer a wide range of courses and are open to all majors.

4. All Trimester Abroad Programs are Learning Communities in the Augustana General Ed. Program.

Some programs will accept late applicants for their roster or for an alternates list.

Eligibility requirements may vary. Applications are open to all current Augustana sophomores, juniors, or seniors in solid academic standing (2.00 GPA minimum, 2.50 for exchanges). Augie Choice funds are available to students following completion of 60 academic credits (typically first available for the summer after the sophomore year.) Additionally, some programs permit students to utilize Augie Choice as sophomores. Program sites are subject to change and may or may not be repeated in future years.
